After four rolling stages in Galicia, La Vuelta Femenina starts ramping up the climbing on stage 5, on a day that will transition the race from its punchy beginning towards its mountain-heavy final two stages.
Starting in the big city of Léon, the stage heads west to Astorga, covering just shy of 120km and taking the race over 1,000m altitude for the first time in the race, with both climbs of the day breaking that mark.
